Old Opera
Sometimes I can still smell the gunpowder and the smoke. No, I wasn’t here when the dark clouds hovered over this town. But, you can feel it; the terror and the intensity of the flames. Brick by brick, stone by stone they rebuilt the presence of this place. Memories of the town are dreary, but there is one area that refuses to die.

For You
Today is a new start. A chance for us not to fall apart. A chance I could capture your heart. I want you more everyday. Everyday it seems you slip further away. Not today, today I will be mindful. Today I will show you. I am love. I will surround you. I will consume you. You will feed my need to be love supernatural. You make my spirit restless. I am waiting for you caress. I am waiting to feel the warmth from your smile. I love the way walk. I will always feel this way. I wont let today be another disaster. Falling farther falling faster cant stop. Today we will be born again. Today is where forever starts. Today we will mend our broken hearts. Today we will be us again. Today we are whole. Today our souls will know. We are love eternal. Today we are one.

Sleep Evades Me
The world calms and darkens. The hum of the long day slowly quiets as the world sleeps. I lay here listening to the silence. Coaxing my mind to sleep. As much as I crave it, want it, need it... It still manages to evade me. The sheep betray me for I count and count and still, here I lay. Eyes wide. Mind running wild. Listening to the deafening sound of the crushing silence.
